Congrats on your success and such a pain free recovery. At 6 weeks I am just getting back to my former levels of energy, so take it easy and don't over stress your system. I felt like warmed over death for the 1st week and in no mood to post to my blog.

Thanks for taking the time to type this out, your story could almost be mine, only it's been 9 days since my sleeve, but everything else, well I'm almost your twin lol

I'm going to try and go back to work on Monday, but my job is pretty light.

I do a few little jobs round the house each day, like make my husband a meal, or wash up, having a shower takes up most of my morning and I count that as a work out lol I'm pretty drained.

I drink about 30oz of water a day and 17oz of chocolate protein if I can manage it all, but it takes me about 7 hours to drink the shake lol

yesterday I had lost 22lbs, but I only stand on the scales every 3 days... I to think people expect me to turn up back at work looking like a fashion model, it's a lot of pressure for a woman struggling to get her bra on and get dressed lol

today I ate some baby jar food 2 tea spoons lol yum!

oops im going on sorry .

I totally understand you , I often feel the same as you .... My doctor had told me that I would not be able to tolorate chocolate and that if I ate it , I would learn to reget it( I tried it and I did not regret it ) , I have lost 42 lbs ,since my surgery on Nov 13 , 2012 . I guess when you hear 42 lbs , it sounds great and it is , but I would probably be losing faster if I drank more water , exercised and watch my snacking . I can tolorate more food and I am feeling guilty about it. I am also feeling hungry more often , so I carry around some diced peach fruit cups 60 cal , with no sugar added. I thought that I was not supposed to feel hungey , I thought that they had removed a part of the stomach that causes you to crave sweets ..... I still crave sweets sometimes . HOW CAN I PROGRAM MY MIND TO NOT WANT SWEETS , WHEN MY MIND REMEMBERS WHAT THEY TASTE LIKE?
